Registration and Grading


Registration

Registration to the course platform is done through the REGISTER link on the course page. If you already have an account from another course on the platform, you can use the same account here.

When you work while logged in, your progress is stored on the course platform. If you study without registration, you can still read the materials and often try out many of the exercises, but your progress may not be stored reliably.

If you are an Aalto student or an exchange student at Aalto, use your @aalto.fi email address and follow the instructions of the currently running course instance.

Progress Tracking

If you are logged in, your current course progress can be shown on the platform.

Your current course progress is as follows:

Course InstanceProgress (%)Points EarnedMax Points

If a course that you are taking has deadlines, please be aware that the progress shown does not account for the deadlines (i.e., points after deadlines are shown above, even though they are be counted towards your final grade).

The exact point structure and possible deadlines depend on the currently running course offering.

Grading

This course is designed as a 5 ECTS university-level course. The exact grading model for a credited offering, including possible exams, project checkpoints, deadlines, and grade thresholds, is communicated on the page of that offering.

For Aalto students and exchange students at Aalto, the authoritative information is the MyCourses page of the currently running course version.

If you are studying the course independently without requesting credits, you can still use the materials and the tracked progress as support for self-study.
